BlueFairy (Tiny Fairy) discussion Part 12

Yep. I really hope they iron out the website soon! Sounds like everyone is chomping at the bit haha

 

I have to say that I looked at the price, gave myself a heart attack, then decided to buy her used, so now I feel more at peace XD. Kinda.

EDIT: does anybody know how you can order just a head without the body, and how much would it cost? the website is not really helpful and I would love to make a hybrid with a less expensive body in the future

 

Well, surprise from out of the blue, the TF Heemang that I ordered back in the "Last Choice" order in May arrived today. (Not sure how long she'd been out in the mail system--we had a huge snowstorm in the US Midwest and no mail at all since last Friday!) She's a beauty and looks somewhat like an older version of Sarang. Face-up was not in the old Bluefairy style and I might have to wipe it and re-do it when it's not 10 degrees Fahrenheit outside. I'll try to take some pictures this weekend. If there's time, I'll find my Sarang and take a picture of them together!

 

sweet dreams my May girl & May blossom that I got both secondhand this past year.

My May arrived on December 30th, got to unbox her last week and did my first bjd cleaning and restringing. She was well kept, but still pretty old and floppy - she now poses a little better than before despite my restringing not being a particularly good job. She came with a set of clothes, a wig and a pair of shoes, but I still need to wash at least the wig and clothes as they have that musty smell despite being in very good condition, with just a little staining here and there. I want to sew her some stuff and find a new wig for her, I am absolutely in love (and now want a new one, of course XD! Probably ShinyFairy Hana)! Will post pics as soon as I can! She came in a pillowed cardboard box that I think is old Bluefairy and I want to somehow freshen up the cushions, too...

 

@midolls*melissa Absolutely loving your dreaming Mays They are super cute and the Breath of the Forest series clothes

@juuhachigo Congratulations on your May and good luck with cleaning the clothes and freshening the cushions. I used wood based kitty litter to my siblings doll which I sold. They had some insences in their home and doll had a strong flowery smell on it so I put all the kitty litter in a container and doll parts in there. I worked well for it. Maybe it would help?

 

oooo, thanks! IK ended up unstringing her and washed her in the sink with warm water and a drop pf dish soap, scrubbing lightly with a melanine sponge, since I had to restring her anyway. It worked (no staining or smell left) but I think I will use kitty litter for the pillowcase at least! I still have to wash the clothes and wig

 

any news on anything bluefairy recently?

 

It seems there is no news
I hope it's just a passing phase, I love their dolls!

 

well speak of the devil, first news in months, they posted in korean that they’re selling some dolls possibly from their showroom collection (?)

unsure if it’s open to foreigners but they’re very cheap so if you’re interested it might be worth it to ask

 

does anybody know if you can order anything from them? I would love to own a couple of new BF dolls but I have to figure their preorder system out

 

I'm confused as well.The site says mobile order only in the notice section but there are no buy buttons only add to wishlist buttons and there don't seem to be any responses on the QA board. I just want to buy a bunch of shoes.


edit: I just posted a question on the QA board. I'll let you know if I get a response.

 

as far as I had tried in December, only the Korean website has 'working' buttons at the moment, but since they haven't updated in a while, I can't understand what preorders are open. I hope they're not going out of business! I will wait eagerly XD

 

Here is the response from Bluefairy, not sure if they will have shoes in stock in the future but I did see they have 2 special dolls listed for May.

"Hello, this is Blue Fairy.

I'm sorry for the late response.
Shoes are out of sale now.
I'm sorry I didn't give you a satisfactory answer

Best regards.
Blue fairy.

 

Ouch :/ maybe not all is lost XD!

 

I haven't been active for quite a while, and haven't followed anything Bluefairy. (I know they moved their factory) I would love to get an Olive in normal skin. I have her in beauty white on an old gentle body, but it's just not speaking to me. I looked at the pre-order that is active this week and I noticed you can only order dolls in Snow White, Beauty White and light Brown. Did they discontinue Normal skin? I am so confused.

 

And you can only order certain heads! I have never bought BF new, but I've followed them through the years and they cost a LOT more now. I don't think I'll be ever able to afford one of them new, sadly!

EDIT: Hang on, for the size I'm interested in for a future preorder I think they mistakenly added the standard body twice on the international website, that's why the price skyrocketed so much!

 

Yeah they've done that for a while. You can only order certain heads each month (first week). But you could see the schedule ahead, so you would know when to purchase. I don't see anything like that now. Another thing I noticed. You can only order the Dazzling body and the Tender body for Tiny Fairy. All other bodies are not even shown on the site. Are they also discontinued? That would be sad. I loved the girl body. Especially the classic, but I've come around to their double jointed ones, since I have a Junior with it. So I'm considering to or order a NS Olive head (I have a spare body), or a beauty white girl body (she's on a Gentle body now. Sweet but just not it for her. Maybe that's more the problem then the skin colour). But both options don't seem to be available

 

I know for a fact that they discontinued the single-jointed TF body...? The one my used TF May has is the Classic Blossom, I think...? I have no experience with the newer bodies, sadly. Yeah, they announced the heads for the June preorder soon after the PocketFairy All-Type order ended. I'm a little disappointed - I am dying to buy SF Hana (and probably TF Sarang in the future) but I would love to plan the purchase a little in advance, without playing Russian roulette on my wallet XD

 

Yes, the classic one has been discontinued for a couple of years. I would consider ordering the Neo girl body (double jointed). But that is not shown on the site anymore. Only Dazzling & Tender.
Another weird issue I have with them is that they seem to have deleted my account. I can not log in or retrieve my password. I get a message that my account doesn't exist Anyone else experienced this? I have no idea if I had any points left or anything.
